You make it fun. --Sue ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 29 Apr 2000 16:33:28 -0700 From: KYER <KYER@p.......> Subject: Aristotle! Aristotle, where *are* you?! Because Nick <Kyer scowls at her Milord's office desk> seems to have *misplaced* his vampire technical help rolodex... Would someone using Win95 who knows how to look up what different files are opened up with, and who hasn't added any office or photo junk to their computer, **please** look up what Mr. Microsoft orignally planned for jpg, gif, bmp, and other pic files to be opened up with? So Kyer can get her Nick pics de-hostage-ized from the evil Enforcer 'Polaroid'? And get back to writing her fic? Oh...offlist please! : @ Kyer kyer@p....... ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 30 Apr 2000 09:48:12 +1200 From: Knightraven <knightraven@c.......> Subject: calling all entries to the RavenAwards! This is a request for ALL of you who entered the Raven Awards this year! Could you please help me out by sending me a full/one bit version of your stories (just those of more than 3 parts). It would help me out time wise a lot, that way I can get the archives up and running asap.

Her hospital stay was a fiasco - the doctors didn't > seem to be able to do anything about the strokes, so they > finally agreed to let her go home. > While I will admit that I know nothing about Susan Pierce's condition, as a registered nurse for 25 years I KNOW the doctors had nothing to do with her hospital stay being a fiasco. While there are some things that can be done for some strokes, the fact of the matter is that once God has chosen that path for you there is nothing that we as mortals can do for it. Some people are responsive to therapy and I hope that this is the case, but on the whole there is little that can be done to that damage that a stroke has caused to the tissue in the brain. I am sorry for Susan Pierce, but I felt I had to take doctors off the god pedastal we've put them on. That's part of the reason for the state of health care management we're in. The are no cures for some of our ailments, instant or otherwise. We just have to learn to adapt. Karen G. ------------------------------ Date: Sat, 29 Apr 2000 20:50:13 -0400 From: "Laura C.

This has only to do with the website owners. If you don't own a fk website, please skip this. I don't want to say which site I just ran into, because I'm sure some under age people might be reading this, but If you all would run and check your websites? A rather extemely distasteful (and obviously pea-brained, sicko troglyte) has hacked into an fk site. You'll want to start fixing the damage asap.

It will never be like it was, but it can improve. The more she does, the more she uses the affected side, the better it will get. It will be slow and very frustrating, and she will wonder what might have been, but it can get better. She also needs to realize that she has friends who will support her. -- Steph stephke@i....... http://www.fkvoyage.com http://www.nimr.org "The sea..where each man, as in a mirror, finds himself", Richard Basehart as Ishmael "If you obey all the rules, you miss all the fun."

I haven't watched Lexx b/c the promos on Sci Fi looked lame, but now I hear NB is gonna be on several episodes. I went to the Sci Fi site, but it didn't give a good low-down on the show. Anyone wanna help me? Which season is now being shown? I've heard our man will show up in the 3rd season -- when are they expected to be shown? Are the eps out of order, as I've heard? I know there are web sites out there, but since I'll be trying to catch the eps on the Sci Fi Network, I need one that has a good tie-in with that network. I saw some ep photos on NB's website, and he looked GOOD! Thanks, Portia ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 30 Apr 2000 14:17:32 -0400 From: Diane Harris <dharris@h.......> Subject: Question for fanfiction I was recently struck with a good idea for another story, but I was wondering if anyone could help me out with some information that I need. Are computer crimes investigated at the local level at all (as in with city law enforcement)? Does it depend on the crime? I've been checking around and it looks like the F.B.I. handles most of it in the United States. Does anyone know about Canada? Thanks in advance! Diane (dharris@h.......)

Thanks! McLisa ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 30 Apr 2000 15:20:41 EDT From: SFryar@a....... Subject: New home for my fanfic and a YKYB, too... (de-lurking for a bit....) Hello! :) I'm pleased to announce a new archive for my fanfic. It's the "Writer's Cube" site at eGroups.com. Just point your browser to www.eGroups.com, sign in, and go to the "MyGroups" page, then click onto the link that will take you to the "Writer's Cube" site. I've reposted my 1997 FK story, "Shadows From The Past" at Writer's Cube. It's been rewritten and edited for clarity, and to correct several errors in grammar, spelling and punctuation that were found in the original version. I plan to post my other FK stories there in the near future, along with 3 crossover stories that are currently in the works, including a Poltergeist:the Legacy/FK crossover. Now for that YKYB... While doing some research for a Vampire: the Masquerade/FK crossover story that I'm working on, I came across an interesting item in the "Guide to the Camarilla", which is a guide book to the ruling sect of vampires in the Vampire: the Masquerade role-playing game. In the glossary of words that the Kindred use to communicate with each other, I found this entry... "Valentine: The mortal lover of a Kindred, usually the source of much angst." Hmmmmm... makes me wonder if the writers of Vampire: the Masquerade saw BMV? <chuckle> Laters! (back to lurking...) Stephanie "Mom" of the DFKS, member of Writer's Cube, 4th year GWDFC member (wow!)
